THE LEGACY TERM – FOR PRESIDENT MAHAMA

This is a realm where eagles, trying a walk
…are regarded fowls
This is a realm where cocks clocking a talk
…are regarded bias-noisemakers
But I’ll be a fowl
And an avid noisemaker
For I see the laws that should be
…being birthed to be

II
I never thought these eyes will live to see
Accountability dancing in one’s own pot
Oh I never thought I’ll live to see
…a mother hen pecking its own chick
…for daring a cheap trick
But he has done it
And it has dressed him fit
As the Kuan Yew holding the right chit
…to usher us out of the corrupting pit

III
Oh Mahama, chart this path
And history will multiply your goody math
Jumping all murky and lurky
…breakages around back arenas
As honour triumphs forgiveness
…in a legacy of bestness

IV
Your soul will dine with Nkrumah
Your name will fitly rhyme with Nkrumah
Oh Mahamah!
So keep on keeping on
Dig the right from the tombs of wrongness
Cut down the rot we look upon
With your sword of judiciousness
Drum hard into heads the folly
Of selling mandate
To stay in a state unholy
And plunge our nation in  an ungrowing state

V
Cement this honour
By continuously holding this banner
And generations will hail you
The world will love you
Your family will cherish you
Your national ancestry will be grateful to you
You will forever be one of the stars in our leading skies
If you solve issues forcing our cries
I pray God holds your resolve
I pray God blesses all that your hands do involve
God bless Mahama!
God bless Ghana!
